IQNA

TEHRAN (IQNA) – Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Sayyed Ali Khamenei underlined that The US has always wanted to overthrow the Islamic establishment of Iran. And they have always failed.

"Don't take all the huff and puff of the new comer in the US
seriously,” the Leader said on the 23rd day of Ramadan in a meeting with the
surviving families of martyred border guards and holy shrine defenders.

During the gathering, the Supreme Leader opened up by
speaking on the concerns of the people, namely on the recent barrage of threats
from the US government and their allies. He reassuringly stated, "Don't
take all the huff and puff of the new comer in the US seriously. The US has
always wanted to overthrow the Islamic establishment of Iran."

He remarked, "Our revolution faced big enemies from the
start," and asserted these distasteful threats from Trump were nothing new
or original.

The Leader of the Revolution went on to say: The only thing
that has changed, is the tone of speech; We have always faced the huff and puff
since the early days of the revolution--for nearly 40 years now!--they couldn’t
do anything then, when the newly born revolution was a small seedling in the
ground; they surely can't cut it down now, since it's grown into this strong
fruitful tree!

Ayatollah Khamenei spoke to remind the audience that old
challenges have never broken the Islamic establishment. To that notion, he
added, "You say you want to change the Islamic Republic? You have always
wanted to overthrow the system; and you always failed with everything
backfiring on you, and of course that won't change!"

The Leader explained: You see, from the beginning of the
revolution, we had countless numbers of those who wished to destroy the Islamic
Republic, and they are now in the depths of hell, leaving this world with
regret and frustration.

The Islamic Republic stands with full authority. And after
this, it will be the same. They must know this; everyone must know, the enemy,
their sincere friends, and those friends who sometimes hesitate, that the
Islamic Republic is firmly standing; and know they can't knock us down, we will
bring them down.

The Leader of the Revolution praised the efforts of Holy
Shrine Defenders and Border Guards who have been a pilar of security for the
Islamic nation. He stated, "If the defenders of the Holy Shrine were not
there, the enemy would have brought the battle to our streets by now. Part of
the great security we have today is thanks to Border Guards; these brave Border
Guards and Martyrs are not given the attention they deserve."

Addressing the families of Border guards and the Holy Shrine
martyrs' today, the honorable Supreme Leader said: The value of our martyrs
should be made clear; if the Holy Shrine martyrs were not there, we would be
face to face with the enemy of Alh uhl bait, the enemy of the Iranian people,
and the enemy of Shi'a in our own cities and streets.

He stressed on the realities of Iraq and Syria, crediting
Iran's defense for pushing them away. "In Iraq, they wanted to reach the
borders of the Islamic Republic, they were pushed away, and they were hit hard;
now they're becoming completely depreciated and swept away. In Syria, if the
work done by our valued commanders had not been carried out, we now had to
fight very close to home."

The Leader of the Revolution reiterated, "An important
part of today's security is greatly owed to the Defenders of Holy Shrines';
another reason for our security is due in great part to our Border Guards. Our
Border Guards and martyrs must be given the attention they deserve."

Ayatollah Khamenei, Leader of the Revolution, finally added,
"The people must acknowledge their [Defenders and Border Security] great
service to them [the people]. Service is not just providing water and bread;
above all, it is security."
